Yeah the rear clips on mine occasionally cause the windows to roll back down. They do stay up the second time you roll them up I'll have to see if there is any adjustments I can make to the clips but its no biggie I could live with it.

Mine do that mate nothing to worry about

I never fitted the clips on mine & every so often my windows come back down and have to put them up for a second time.

After a bit of a c*ckup on the sellers side I finally recieved my double din console.

Still unsure if i'm gonna fit it yet though I may end up selling it.

 

[aaronipswich]

Oh I never bothered with the cage as I used the one I got with my pioneer instead

 

[Deleted member 12147]

Yeah im not gonna fit the cage the guy just sent it with the console.

Small Update:

Had my clutch replaced yesterday thanks to Midland VW also just booked my car in at REVO for the new Stage2 linear remap upgrade

 

[t0m]

Which clutch did you go for dude?

The linear map should be sweet.

 

[Deleted member 12147]

Nothing special just a standard one mate when it goes again i'll look to upgrade. It's gonna cost £50 for the revo upgrade so I thought I'd give it a go.

 

[t0m]

The standard one's can last pretty well on our cars I've found, but I will be uprating it soon as I want more track time.

Let us know how you get on with the linear update to the map mate.

Quik question mate on the front grill, for the honeycomb sections did you glue them together? And if so what with? I was just gonna use Araldite

You could use araldite, I used this stuff got it from B&Q it's flexible, fully weatherproof and paintable BUT can be messy to work with.

I decided to get the car ready for next weeks stage2 Revo linear remap. So been busy replacing the spark plugs, fuel filter, pollen filter and I broke out the ultrasonic cleaner and cleaned my injectors and FPR.*

During the first clean

During the third clean

Plugs

It's running alot smoother now, I couldn't believe how much crap came out of the injectors. Admittedly the exterior of them were dirty aswell but the came out gleaming.

Revo2 linear... Interesting, look forward to the review.

Love that cleaner!!

 

[James23Parkin]

Good for you buddy. Dolby's thoughts about the Revo linear Stg 2 map seem really positive. Hopefully you achieve the same benefits, especially with the service that you've given the car. I hadn't even given the injectors a second thought. Is the cleaning equipment specialist and expensive? I suppose if you don't have access to such, you'd send it out to a specialist to clean?

I look forward to hearing how the car gets on

ECS cough cough

Lol ecs is on the list mate watch this space. It's booked in on Wednesday but the weather is supposed to be sh*t so may not be able to give it the full beans. You can sen the injectors off to be cleaned but it's a piece of cake to do, took me about 2 hours an 1hour of which was letting them dry out in the sun while I changed the plugs. I got the ultrasonic cleaner from maplins it was £30 and the concentrate cleaning fluid was £10, so wasn't that expensive tbf.

 

[James23Parkin]

Thanks for the information mate. It's greatly appreciated!

James

Good work cleaning the injectors! Not thought about doing this, but really should...

 

[Deleted member 12147]

If your thinking of doing it this is the guide I used its spot on. The only trouble you might have is removing the FPR it's a PITA.
